C# Language

What’s inside

• Foundations — Value vs reference types, console I/O, switch expressions, collections, regex, and dates
• Methods & Types — Methods, records and tuples, and nullable reference types
• The Object Model — Inheritance, interfaces, operator overloading, and IDisposable and GC
• Modern C# — Generics, delegates, events and lambdas, LINQ, iterators, and the C# 9 through 12 features
• Robust & Async — Exceptions, JSON, the dotnet CLI, async/await and Task, threads, locks and PLINQ, and reflection
• Applied C# — main libraries, built-in functions, hand-built data structures, and design patterns
• Every block runnable and trap-annotated — the idiomatic way and the classic traps met in safety first, with a practice challenge and a harder bonus in every chapter
• 5 Capstone Projects — TaskTrek, MiniMapper, Pulse, Minnow, and SharpScript, each with a full Solutions & Explanations chapter
